Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0916865A2] The present invention provides a squeak preventing shim for a disk brake for an automobile. In the shim construction there are formed a plurality of grooves (11) or recesses (12) in rubber layers (2) disposed on two surfaces of a metal plate (1) in a rubber coat metal. Owing to these grooves (11) or recesses (12), the apparent transversal elastic modulus of the rubber layers (2) lowers and a squeak preventing effect due to vibration in a parallel direction to the shim can be obtained, even if no lubricant is used. Further, since the longitudinal elastic modulus varies not so much, it is possible also to prevent lowering of durability such as buckling, flow, etc. <IMAGE>
